This a cookie that was made by NZ and Australian women to send to their men overseas during WWI and WWII. They keep very well and are very tasty. They are also very versitle, addtions welcome once you get the hang of them. Golden Syrup is a light treacle product. Do not use Corn Syrup or honey the taste is different. Try Lyle & Tate Golden Syrup from the UK.

How To Make anzac biscuits

Step 1

Mix all dry ingredients together well.

Put butter, syrup and water into a saucepan to melt, then add to dry mixture.

Place on a cold greased oven tray in shapes about the size of a walnut.
Step 4

Bake in a moderate oven.
Step 5

You can paly around with this mixture by adding sultanas or chia seeds. A spot of Vanilla Extract is a nice touch. Dried Apricots in the mix is nice, as is a drizzle of melted chocolate over the baked biscuits.
